Subject: [newbie] Networking problem
I have networked my two machines together and can ping each of them
successfully. I'm trying to set up network file sharing and have edited the
/etc/exports file to read
/usr *.localdomain and
/home *.localdomain
I have also edited the /fstab files to read:
machinename:/usr /usr nfs defaults and
machinename:/home /home nfs defaults
The problem i have is the book I'm using, which is the only one I could find
to tell me how to enable network file sharing without setting up a network
file server, says to run the rpc.nfsd daemon and to edit the startup file
to
do it automatically. The problem is I cannot find rpc.nfsd. The book was
written for Slackware, but that's all I could find. Any suggestions?
